finally decided to watch a high level game why the fuck do they Attack click so often? They'll A click stop A click stop last hit normal click and a few more A clicks.
Ethan Jenkins
is Crystal "Maiden" the most horrible title given to someone in dota land? this "Maiden" doesnt look like a maiden to me , hell Lina the Slayer is more of a maiden compared to this slut.
Gavin Lee
How to fix this mess:
>Return all the in-game changes back to 6.88 >Keep the new neutral creeps, keep the item changes, keep the backpack >Keep the hero reworks and remodels, dynamic grass, community bots >Make the talent system give you small attribute bonuses just like leveling stats did except at level 25 >Keep the new hero, new pregame, new HUD >Add new "larger HUD" option with more info
Start fresh from there and make actual hero balance changes, not shitty talent bandaids. There Dota is fixed.

Why we never have pretty or lewd OP pictures

Yeah those are some great Ideas too bad all of them are shit because of the first one
Jason Rivera
>people go veil ember now because they think cleave was nerfed >people are this inept at basic maths and geometry new battlefury area has 91% of the size the old one had, but a more favourable shape it is more directional and actually wider in the end than the old one since his SoF now has a set direction it is actually better than ever >mfw dotards are literally too dumb to read patch notes properly >mfw noone even tried it out >mfw I see even anti mages trying to replace battlefury with maelstrom or some shit
Jonathan Moore
for farming purposes it's better. Also it has a set direction? Does the cleave go all in one direction? So if they were some what in a horizontal line it would spread outward and deal no damage since they aren't "behind" each other
Brody Ortiz
I don't understand this games popularity. I tried it and from what I gather you spawn then run a long distance towards and enemy, when you get there the enemy runs away, then some I guess is on your team comes along also, then they run away. If you run after anyone you die shortly afterwards.
Rocket League lived up to the hype but DOTA2 is laughably bad, I just assume people get far enough involved into it that they can't stop due to accumulation of some digital currency or something that will vanish if they stop, therefore all that time they invested would be gone.

Gavin Barnes
then you SoF from the direction they are all lined up in, you can control it now when it was purely random before. It actually enables bad and good usage of SoF, where good usage outclasses the old one by far.
Camden Peterson
Different from a good thing by being bad, yes.
Nolan Richardson
So, what should I go for after Tranquils-Urn-Veil-Shiva's on offlane Phoenix? I'd really like to get a Radiance because of the extra damage and 17% miss chance against my egg, but I've heard Octarine Core has a much higher value on him for a less than 1k gold difference.
I don't think I can get a 6th item anyways, games never last long enough every time I'm playing Phoenix, funnily enough.
Grayson Russell
Sunken cost fallacy. Most of the burned out playerbase has at least hundreds of hours invested and maybe even some fancy cosmetics. All that intricate knowledge about the game can't go to waste.
James Brooks
then you need blink for that, making ember even more useless until 40 minutes than he was before. >guys, let me quickly farm my blink+bf+crit before I am of any relevance whatsoever Magic damage ember has constant impact
Brayden Rodriguez
you're making it sound like blink wasn't a part of the build since forever you also have 3 remnants for mobility
Kayden Gray

Oliver White
Is Furion actually decent in 7.01? Or is he still just a shit hero that tanks your MMR like in 6.88?
Christian Foster
Worst hero in the game atm
Dominic Gutierrez
WHOS THAT POKEMON????
Joseph Williams
7.00 was supposed to fix memeback it didnt now everyone is quitting
Matthew Roberts
Do you mean while farming? It's to get the last hit timing just right.
Alexander Thomas
timing and attack move
youtube.com/watch?v=Y-tLY8ztmRU
Brayden White
Yeah while farming. I guess, i usually click on the creep and hit S while farming, all the while moving of course. I'll try that out i guess see how it works. I just feel like it auto targets the wrong creeps i only use it when i'm up against techies or something stupid so i just a click through the woods.
Isaiah Clark
> Not going veil for that early game and mid game impact and then normal damage It's sunken cost fallacy oh ahit i bought veil now I need to go full retard magic damage where my bloodstone at
The build is veil bots blink bfury CRit or bloodthorne octamene
Josiah Flores
Oh well yeah i use attack move while kiting, just not while farming, i just do a regular click auto or i'll cancel it with movement. My only issue with a click which i said is when it targets the wrong thing if i try to last hit with it.
Owen Davis
I like the idea I'll try it
Ayden Perry
you didn't even guess which hero
Jason Rivera
I farm so much by a clicking the ground, it just makes movement feel natural since you can move inbetween attacks without moving the mouse like a CS:GO pro from creeps to directions and back
Jason Powell
i like the idea too, i will try to guess the hero
Henry Myers
we've been over this
the reason new bfury sucks isn't because of the area covered, its because of the direction. The real nerf was that sleight of fists now always faces away from the caster instead of being at arbitrary directions based on previous slashed targets which was based on unit creation
If ember spirit is in your face slashing you like this webm, you'd take 0 damage from battlefury cleave because he'll always be hitting the creeps away from you. If you're standing in front of your creep wave, you'll never get hit by cleave
the only way its possible to get hit by cleave now is to have creeps between you and ember, which is easy to avoid. Any time you're running towards him, he's never going to land cleaves on you
veil->maelstrom is better damage output in fights, better farming, lower gold cost, better stats.
>>mfw I see even anti mages trying to replace battlefury with maelstrom or some shit antimage needs bfury to farm ember doesnt. Ember with just flame guard + boots of travel + fire remnants and spamming searing chains on creeps is going to flash farm lanes and jungle so fast theres no point to bfury maelstrom + veil already wipes wave when defending highground so no point in bfury there either
Logan Cox
eh you guys suck
Isaac Brooks
>run straight into his face, against directions >worst usage of SoF possible with new mechanics >instead could have ensured a cleave from every creep there yeah, it's not your fault right?
Carter Kelly
> go for the big push >LC somehow snakes behinds us >takes our our mid and bottom racks >they have mega creeps >we can'/t end because she can solo those towers with one lane of creeps >almost lose because of no backdoor protection does it just shut off once you lose one rack? we had top racks down but the creeps weren't close until lc started on the ancient towers. or in the base rather
Landon Thomas
It's a mega creep on mega creep battle btw.
Juan Ortiz
You tricked me
Brandon James
Even the talent are trying to escape dota
Mason Morales
so he should run away from sniper and stay at 600 distance so he can land a couple weak cleaves except still probably miss anyway, while not able to attack him inbetween sof because he's out of melee range? and miss every chains because theres creeps inbetween them? lmao sounds like a good way to be a farm vacuum that loses every fight
ember actually deals MORE damage to an enemy surrounded by creeps with maelstrom than bfury, because at least the maelstrom procs bounce to the hero whereas bfury would just miss entirely.
look at the directions cleave would have hit when he cast sof. how useful is that lmao? would hit hit 0 times on sniper
Cooper Garcia
on the flipside, the guy at the back gets literally hit by every cleave and gets rekt. Instead of doing random even damage across the enemy team, you are doing more targeted damage to the guy at the back and might even land a kill on him. 1 dead guy is better than 5 guys at 80% health
Angel Taylor
I don't see any talent there.
Xavier Gonzalez
>sheever >'talent'
also >escaping to CS GO that's like escaping from the nazis to the soviets
Henry Lopez
the point is you would have used SoF differently there, of course if you run inbetween everything and go against it's mechanics it's gonna end up being bad first SoF should have been used before running in, not after attacking once second SoF would only need to be used a little later so creeps catch up to sniper
your whole argument is literally based on the fact that the SoF usage in your webm goes against current mechanics and was therefore garbage
Michael Baker
why don't they just make SoF cleave towards the inside of the circle so the centre gets hit by all the cleaves? That would be better
Michael Peterson
because they wanted to remove the randomness and add skillful usage cleaving towards the inside wouldn't utilize positioning or ember's mobility and be braindead as fuck
Ian Williams
or jumping from one sinking ship to another ship that's sinking faster
Mason Cooper
>there are still people who think dota is dying
Matthew Richardson
it's better to make him braindead because then he'd be more accessible desu. But this is okay too.
Noah Rivera
My game keeps freezing for 2-3 seconds in crucial moments (slark popping out of invis enxt to me, teamfights). My fps is steady and capped at 60, never drops below it, every other game I have runs perfectly smooth. Only dota has those annoying freezes. I reinstalled the game, verified, didn't help. Any ideas?
Lincoln James

but wouldn't this new direction make supps suffer more? I mean, I've done 3 bf embers already in this new 7.00, won two games, and in these 3 games with 3 damage items I always instakilled supps that were even far behind the lines =p

Wyatt Price
i haven't played dota in 2 years so i haven't had any reasons to come back to this place until last week
Connor Thomas
doing random unpredictable damage that SOMETIMES hits the enemy team is better than doing damage that NEVER hits the enemy team, because its fucking trivial to avoid and doesn't work in the situations where you'd want it, like rubbing up against someone with flame guard
the only scenario where cleave connects is when someone is dumb enough to walk right up behind the creep wave uphill into your T3, and why would they do that?
for ember to connect bfury cleaves in that webm, he'd have to be standing in a different place for every creep, in a huge ring around the fight. The new mechanic has made it so you can connect off what, 1 creep, only if you line it up and stay out of range, only if the enemy isn't moving, and only in the same situations where chaining them is hard lmao
the new cleave/sof is garbage
Samuel Hughes

this man gets it
Matthew Bailey
People will always play what you want, your job is to get them to play in a way that is most beneficial to the team. Most low MMR players will just dick around, so if they accidentally draft a something like a deathball lineup, someone has to tell them to get going.
